Chapter 715: Hunters or Preys? (3)
"Is it Queen Ice Fiend Locust or others?" Jacob asked as he stood up. Clothes appeared on his body as he started to head outside.
"What do you think?" Immortika asked, clearly entertained, yet Jacob didn\'t reply and glared at the cursed book before it wrote again, "Tsk, tsk, don\'t look at me like that. There is indeed Ice Fiend Locust among them. The others aren\'t here personally, but one of them is quite interesting."
Jacob\'s eyes narrowed when he read the last part, "What do you mean they aren\'t here personally?"
"Hehehehe, remembered what happened with the Horned Ogre when you thought you had killed him?" Immortika questioned.
Jacob\'s eyes contorted as he instantly guessed what Immortika was implying, "So, the other you\'re talking about is using those strange substitute puppets? Furthermore, it seems the Queen Ice Fiend Locust has also sent her proxy since she can\'t come here personally.
"But I was still under the impression that she was a vicious being and would raise hell in the entire conflict plains while making her way to me. However, it seemed she was not blinded by vengeance, as you told me she would, and instead, she seemed to have brought her friends with her to deal with me. Is there something else I\'m not aware of?" he asked coldly.
"Hah, don\'t blame me, I can\'t predict her actions or control her to what you\'re expecting her. But I\'m not wrong about her flaw, no matter how much restraint she had; once you\'re in front of her, I can guarantee you that she\'ll do everything in her power to kill you even if the situation is disadvantageous to you." Immortika confidently wrote.
Jacob didn\'t argue because he knew Immortika had never been wrong. No matter what kind of variable appeared, the end result would always be the same.
"Then those guys who are using those puppets are they the three steps of legend rank as well, or are they just some kind of guides, and who among them caught your interest?" He asked.
"Hehehe, I\'m afraid they are all Quasi Legends, and there are five of them! As for the guy I\'m calling interesting, it is a Lord Goblin who can suppress any goblin who is not a \'Lord,\' an extreme rarity among the Goblin Race with the direct bloodline of a Cosmic Goblin, a cunning and highly treacherous race with the space type abilities. He\'s also at the peak of Quasi Legend and just like you, he had awakened his Soul Force as well! Hahahahaha now is something I wasn\'t expecting!" Immortika started to laugh crazily.
Jacob\'s expression finally changed when he read about so many quasi-legends popping out of nowhere. The more absurd part was that the Queen Ice Fiend Locust managed to make them come here with her. He had never thought that the Queen Ice Fiend Locust had such a connection despite living in that remote no-return zone.
If he had known this, he would\'ve made more preparations, but this was still alright in light of the news that someone with the Soul Force and the extremely rare space-type abilities was also in that group!
Furthermore, he clearly remembered that when he killed the Society Killer Ten, the reason behind his rise was also some kind of opportunity he found from the civilization ruin of the Cosmic Goblin race. He wasn\'t expecting to encounter a living one in this place.
"What are you getting all worked up for? I guess it\'s time to give you some more information about the final stage. With your current progress with the longevity schema, you can take on Intermediate Stage Quasi Legends.
"Not only that, but despite your blood vessels being absorbed into your bones, you can still use the Fluid Acceleration because the schema sculpted on your bones is far more powerful than blood vessels, and you could consider it a new and powerful version of your blood vessels.
"In fact, now that you are about to get rid of those weak organs and blood vessels, the fluid acceleration you use on your blood to increase your blood flow and raise your power will also change. Before, you had to worry about blowing up your body, but now there are no such limitations as long as you complete the final stage.
"If you can replenish your cursed blood to the current capacity, you can use 500X acceleration, and the power you\'ll get would be far greater because of your cursed blood. The more blood you have, the stronger the acceleration, and you don\'t need to worry about it at all.
"Because each glyph within the runic lines on your bones can store 99 drops of Cursed Blood. Do you even know how many glyphs there are in the Longevity Schema? There are 999,999, which means they can store 98,999,901 drops of Cursed Blood. Only when you have completely filled your glyphs with 98,999,901 drops of Cursed Blood will the final 1,000,099 drops of Cursed Bone Marrow condense, which will complete the final stage!
"This means that even after you complete the Longevity Schema, you need to fill those runic lines with cursed blood to complete the process. I was going to tell you once you have completed the entire longevity schema, but I guess now that you have created this kind of opportunity, you shouldn\'t waste
it.
"Hahaahahaha, just thinking about what you\'re going to do now would make all the wait worth it!" Immortika instantly started to laugh after dropping such a huge bomb on Jacob.
Jacob was alarmed when he learned the deeper details of the longevity schema. He finally understood why he could store so much blood in his runic lines. The more blood he had, the deeper those runic lines started to glow, and he felt even more powerful.
However, Jacob wasn\'t happy at all, and he felt his scalp tingle with trepidation when he thought about just how difficult it was getting to collect the blood the more he progressed. But now, he had to fill all the 999,999 glyphs with almost 100 million drops of cursed blood even after completing the schema to complete the process. This was simply too absurd! "You should\'ve told me this from the start! How I\'m supposed to gather so much cursed blood?! I\'m afraid even if I bleed the entire unique plains, I still won\'t be able to fill the cursed blood! Are you freaking sure that this is just the first phase, not the final phase? What kind of absurd requirements are these?!" Jacob was feeling indignant, and for the first time, he started to question the cursed book; he was even wondering if this book could truly make someone Immortal instead of the Devil!
"Hehehehe, getting cold feet, are we? How about I share with you a quote I suddenly remembered said by none other than my first inheritor before he met his end? It was like this:
"Beware, wayward traveler, for the Path of Immortality is paved not with gold but with the crimson tide of countless fallen. It is a treacherous journey, a gauntlet wrought of iron and despair. Here, the very air reeks of carnage, and the ground is slick with the lifeblood of those who dared to dream of defying mortality. Only the most resolute souls, forged in the fires of tribulation, can hope to endure the horrors that lie in wait!"
